I'm thinking about trying som peltier cooling since I already own most of the parts except a suitable block for a peltier. Currently I'm running a storm block but since it isn't recommended for peltier cooling I thought I would either buy or mill a new one.

I'm taking some courses in milling and I need something to practice milling, so my question is if anyone has a good peltier block drawing to share?

I've tried to understand what's the best cold plate thickness. But I don't get it... :shrug:

The thickess depends on what? Is there any good way to calculate it? how? (I'm taking some thermo dynamics but yet it's pretty basic.)
If there's no good way to calculate it I thought I would start with a thick cold plate and then just mill it down and test what works best for me.
